I would like to formally apologize to the customer in Tiny Bookshop who asked for a romance and then said "wow in hope they get together in the end!" after I recommended The Song of Achilles 😬

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775. I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

There are 14 boxes on my revision checklist. I toil away for two hours on edits, and then happily check one box complete. There are now 18 boxes on my revision checklist.

Officially trying to build a studio for a publisher pitch. To that end, I'm looking for game devs who've been victims of layoffs or studio closures who'd be interested in signing on if it's greenlit and funding is secured. More info in the thread to follow, but here's the initial list:

Additional GDC tips: - EAT. BREAKFAST. - The after-lunch lie-down. This is THE strat. Go back to your hotel room for a bit. Charge your phone. Relax in the quiet. It'll help you power through the second half of the day. - I don't drink in general, but I'm serious: consider not drinking at GDC.

I am proud of the senior senator from my state and the top Democrat on the Appropriations Committee. She is 100% correct and showing us the way forward by being willing to fight for the American people. That is exactly what every Senate Democrat should do. Vote No on cloture.✊🏾✊🏾

Seriously don't come here for GDC. Claiming folks here for GDC are "working" isn't even a stretch, and the below is a case where she was literally trying to follow the rules with a consulting Visa. Not to mention that GDC attendees tend to be a honey pot of exactly the kind of queer folk they hate.
